-Team Touma:
Touma is not nobility, being raised a Human commoner and blacksmith's son, but the gods have a vital role for him to play in their prophecies. As Kierra's best friend since childhood, Touma would do anything to take her away from the dark political world that shackles her to her duty as future queen. -Team César: César Pedronis is a tortured soul. Raised by the Elite in charge of the Fourth Allied Human Land, he was raised with a silver spoon in his mouth but iron through his heart. The queen's decision to pledge Princess Kierra's hand to César gives the notorious Devil-Slayer a chance to take charge and fix the corruption wracking his world. -Team Lunev: Vampire-Elf Prince Lunev is Kierra's chosen betrothed. He has guarded and sheltered her throughout her life, though that occasionally means erasing a memory or two. Though Vampire-Elves rarely marry, she has captivated the prince so much that for her he will make an exception. **Splitting Dawn, the first full-length Dark Fantasy Romance novel in my Splitting Worlds series, is coming exclusively in the Realm of Darkness box set in October 2022.
